Company Profile and Background

Lockwise is a member of the Master Locksmiths Association, having been inspected and approved in the "Locksmith" and the "Safe Engineer" categories. Our clients include local authorities, government departments and blue-chip commercial organisations requiring high security lock and access control installations. Lockwise Ltd. are a CHAS approved company.

Keeping up with Technology

When Lockwise first started, access control meant either special key systems or unsophisticated electronic systems. Our skills have developed from lock opening and installing, keycutting etc. into designing and installing networked access control systems from leading manufacturers controlling multiple doors. Our services on old fashioned door springs have developed into converting existing swing doors into fully automatic doors and installing automatic sliding entrances.

Company History

Lockwise was established in 1986 in shop premises in Benton Road, Newcastle upon Tyne. In 1992 we moved to a leased industrial premises on the North Tyne Industrial Estate. After twelve succesful years there, in May 2004 we purchased and moved to new premises in Border Road, Wallsend. This is a more convenient location, just off High Street West. Jim Robertson, the managing director has been continuously involved in the locksmith trade for thirty-five years at home and abroad and brings this wealth of experience to all Lockwise customers.
